Telmont works together and runs tests alongside French glassmaker Verallia to create a new lightweight bottle that only weighs 800g per bottle. The two have been pushing the boundaries in this real, working hard to reduce the weight of trimmer bottles that ultimately lower the total emissions. Lighter bottles are made up of less glass and lead to fewer carbon emissions during the melting and production processes.

DiCaprio released a statement explaining the goal and values of Telmont, "With an ambitious goal of becoming the first climate-positive champagne house by 2030, and net positive by 2050, this step demonstrates Telmont’s commitment to reducing the carbon footprint of winemaking and changing the ways they cultivate, produce and transport their champagne.”
